It's Been A While...
Hello everyone! It’s been over a month since I last posted on the blog which is absolutely crazy. January literally flew by and I spent a lot of time alone to reflect and set intentions for 2020. I did not post a single photo to Instagram for nearly 3 weeks and to be honest I felt great. I have a horrible sinus infection and was planning on posting later this week after I returned home from Aspen, but a series of unfortunate events have returned me back home to LA after a 12 hour travel day to try and land in Aspen. Anyways, here’s what’s been going on:
To start, when you grow a following on any social media platform, there is pressure to create and post for your audience. I think it goes without saying that taking a break is very healthy and necessary in order to re-focus. So I took a break, pretty much took January off, and literally have shifted my mindset with Instagram for this year.
When I think about the reasons I follow people, the main reason is for information. Whether it’s information on beauty, fitness, fashion, or healthy eating tips, information and answers are what you need to provide to your audience with your own unique approach. So with that being said, I have simultaneously taken the pressure off of myself to post everyday, in order to actually post useful information. Furthermore, the reliability factor is extremely important.
When I started the blog I wanted to kinda be that cool girl next door. While I felt like I was doing so, my content was in fact totally unrelatable. My focus this year will be entirely on being relatable and real, while being true to myself.
I also started acting again which I am super excited and passionate about. Thank you so much for your continued support and I can’t wait to see what this year brings.
